"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Ok so when it comes to training music, or music to listen to when i am running, NOTHING gives you that ENERGY and PUMP like TRANCE music does..

I've been a huge fan of Trance music since as early as 1993.. And i mean REAL Trance music, not the cheesy, commercial DJ Tiesto type nonsense!!

 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

This music was made for the GYM
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Word!
I'm more of a Techno man myself. British Techno, Detroit Techno, and New York Techno are my personal favorites.
Even Chicago hard house sounds pretty damn good.
And if I really want to bring the animal out of me, I'll listen to some gabber/nyc speedcore.

Heavy metal in the gym? Hmmm not sure about that.. Each to there own I suppose.

Personally techno & trance music are perfect for running and lifting!

Lots of energy and euphoria!

I don't listen heavy metal, especially in gym) My favorite music is deep house. I also want to ask in what format do you listen music, mp3?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

To achieve maximal sound quality, lossless audio files are the best option: WAV, AIFF, FLAC, WMA lossless, ALAC, DSF, DFF, SACD ISO.
To achieve minimal file size, lossy compressed files are the best option: mp3, AAC, ogg, WMA, other.
You can easily convert one format to another by using special converter. For example I usually convert webm to mp3 for my player.

And as for me I prefer drum and bass:)

Lossless ALL the way mate.. I don't touch mp3 these days!

Big improvement in sound quality with Lossless!

And here I liked “trampled under foot” by Led Zeppelin or “Keep your hands off my girl” by Good Charlotte.

You need to resurrect this thing man. I was listening to DJ Snake earlier when skipping rope - not trance but DJ Snake is awesome.

 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I been raving for a long ass time.. It went hand and hand with the nightlife.. Trance always has its place in my playlist and I listened to some good amount of trance when I first started getting heavy into bodybuilding, (Zyzz era)

but, in all honesty, nothing gets me going more than some hard rock/metal. Sht like Alice in Chains, Slipknot, Motley Crue, Type O Negative, CKY, Motorhead, etc

Hard driving latin percussion like Salsa works best for me, but then I don't listen to computer generated music like Trance or Techno. Not from that generation.

....UH oh.... feeling old.

hold up. I love music…. But you post trance music and accuse others of listening to gay music.

i always assumed the music you posted was the kind of music they play in gay clubs. Can you confirm?

Honestly this trance aint bad. Thanks for posting. Could definitely see myself running to it

love it when they have some girl singing something in it too
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
